(57.2) 120.0 Overheads allocation methodology Four key elements 1. New centre opening costs estimated at £110,000 per centre.
Reflects the costs incurred to the point of opening.
2. Property team costs. It is estimated that 90% of the property teams ’ costs are spent on supporting the growth programme.
3. Sales and marketing costs. The principle is that the allocation
is made on the basis of new workstation sales as the nature of the spend is to generate new enquiries and convert into new sales. Renewals are excluded, as these are handled by the centre staff, who form part of our cost of sales.
4. All other overhead costs are allocated pro rata by reference to
available workstation numbers.Investor relations contact details
